Mets GM Zack Scott Was Reportedly Arrested On A DWI Charge After Cops Found Him Sleeping Behind The Wheel In White Plains
NY Post- Acting General Manager Zack Scott is facing driving while intoxicated charges after he was busted dozing in his car in White Plains, The Post has learned. Scott, 44, was nabbed at 4:17 a.m. Tuesday when cops caught him snoozing in a 2018 Toyota on South Lexington Avenue near the federal courthouse, White Plains Police Capt. James Spencer said Wednesday.
The embattled GM refused to give blood or submit to a breathalyzer but underwent a field sobriety test and failed, Spencer said. He was charged and released and is due back in White Plains City Court on Thursday.

Uncle Stevie This Offseason:
I woke up this morning feeling blessed that the Mets were on a four-game winning streak and couldn't hurt me today since the game was postponed due to the torrential downpour that is currently flooding New York. Or at least hurt me anymore than they already have because my calf has been sore as FUCK all day.
However, in typical Mets fashion when it rains it pours and we are in the middle of yet another bukakke of controversy. I could go on and on about how preposterously dumb you have to be to get a DUI in the year 2021 of our Lord or how lucky everyone is that nobody got hurt but I hope/think everyone but idiot Zack Scott realizes that.
Zack Scott's only responsibility seemed to be not giving the franchise another black eye after Jared Porter got canned for being a creep. Scott was pretty much like Orlando from The Wire. His entire job was to just keep his name clean and not only could he not do that, but he brought his boss' name into the mix of his big mistake as well.
ESPN decided to leave some of the details out, which we know around here is very par for the course for the former "worldwide leader".
Regardless of all that, the only thing that matters is nobody got hurt and I'm pretty sure this (along with like 90 other things) will result in the entire front office that Cohen and Alderson had to put together on the fly in a pandemic will get blown up and restructured like an actual baseball franchise. I'll still ride for the guy who occasionally jumps into a gorilla suit or leaves a team after winning a World Series. But considering two of his proteges just added another couple of heaps of disgrace on this franchise, I'm not going to hold my breath for it to happen, even if this gif is one of my favorite things ever.
